[Cdash] Weird problem with uploading project logo

[Julien Jomier]

Hi Marcel,

I think the production machine is trying to compress the logo but the 
encoding of the database is not UTF-8 so it's failing. You can disable 
the compression in CDash via config.php (or config.local.php).

$CDASH_USE_COMPRESSION='0';

But it's recommended to keep the compression and change the encoding to 
UTF-8.
